in Buy, Sell & Trade - Cards & Memorabilia
Selling my husband's Topps 1974 complete set, in box.

Just by looking at the design of the box, I don't believe that this box was or could ever have been sealed (there is no evidence of any seal, broken or not).

The box shows signs of age on the outside, esp. the corners, however, the cards appear to be handled rarely/very gently.

Someone on another thread indicated that these go for 1000-1500. Will sell for 700, obo.

    You will need to upload the photo to a site like Photobucket (I'd recommend that site). Then you can paste a link to the photo and the photo will show up in your listing. There is a Photobucket app for the iPhone.

    What people will be most interested in seeing is how the set looks inside the box, so be sure to include a photo of the complete set (photo of the cards inside the box, not the outside of the box).

    You will also want to go into your profile and turn on the ability to receive private messages.

    To add a photo, click on the box next to the "Bold, Italic and Underline" boxes when you do your post. It looks like a mountain in a frame. Post your link there and it should work.

    You still need to turn on your private messages box. I am interested in seeing the photos.

    If you send me a private message, I can help you out. Click on the thing that looks like a Masterlock on the right side of the message (top right corner).

    Yep, I did that (saw the photo icon, added each of the links, they showed in the version as I was editing it) but they never actually showed up when i posted it.

    I will go change my settings now. Thanks image

    It wasn't me. You can see the photos by right clicking the broken links and pasting them into your browser. The set looked pretty good in low light. Aaron appeared to have some potential.

    Some nice cards but based on what I can see in the fuzzy photos, I don't think there are too many 9s in there. $700 is pretty steep for a 1974 set unless it's minty mint.

    I was as interested in the back story... Worth 700 most of the time.

    I hope it works out well for the buyer. Obviously, with a new ID and selling her husband's set, heightened care and scrutiny are in order. In situations like these, I prefer to offer a premium for a seller to list on eBay as a BIN to add another level of buyer protection. Maybe something for others to consider.
